Longer legs are sexier
Jan 17 2008
Well, to a point apparently. 5% to be exact. It's a good job I've long skinny legs - unfortunately with shit tattoos on them.
Men are not alone in finding the leggier form more attractive. Women consider longer-legged men more physically appealing than their stumpier counterparts, a study has found.
Research involving more than 200 men and women revealed that people whose legs are 5% longer than average are considered the most attractive, regardless of their gender.
Guardian
As with all popular science reporting, they can't resist some evolutionary psychology.
The scientists believe there are good evolutionary reasons for the preference. "Long legs are a sign of health," Pawlowski told New Scientist magazine.
So you short arses better get some callipers on and stretch them legs!

Shorter men are also much more likely to kill themselves when adults:

One shit straightedge one, one shit darwinian one. They were part of plan to get my leg covered, then I realised I had no money or inclination. But hey fuck it.

If rolling into an armbar victory is "that way" then yes, I am indeed rolling that way.

Well I've got one out of action at the moment right now so how about we wait a few weeks. Unless this means that I get a helper monkey.
Although both The Simpsons and Malcolm in the Middle suggest this would be a bad move.

Back on topic - yeah longer legs on women are well sexy. But it obviously doesn't count for blokes, I mean we all know some well fuckin repulsive lanky legged bloke bastards don't we xconorx? Can't name names on the internet but I cud pm ye and run a few names by ya and ye'd haftae agree.

Boul I know who you're on about and yes, in that case it's repellant, although I think that mostly to do with his sex-pest nature. How the fuck does a fuckin sex-pest get ANY and a nice fella like me gets fuck all?!

I wasn't just talkin about 'him' though he obv top of the list...
In answer to yer question its cos nice blokes are too fuckin nice, and a bit insecure and rarely actually make the first move. That means sex pests, retards, ugly fuckers and goons who use "I'm a feminist" as a chat up line get to cop off with more women and, well, us nice sorta reserved 'shy' blokes usually end up with complete fuckin mentalists if we "get ANY" at all.
But you know that shit.

Mentalists are awesome... Oh yes we are , but put two of us together and it's no wonder we have to live so far from civilisation

No, you just let on like you might on the internet
So, do you reckon we should aspire to being more "wankerish cunty"? I dunno if I can do that, not on purpose anyhow.
Right I'm away now, g'nite all.

I'm well known for liking curl up in front of the TV normal/nerdy types though. I just can't be arsed with intense or mental people. My own problem.
